I did however get 100 MS points for renewing my subscription. (Costco had XBL Gold, 1 yr for $40).

That is a great price, might have to check it out. My subscription doesn't end till November however. I have been using rewards since January and hoping I qualified for the triple play. I have not seen anything yet.

whats the difference between gold membership and regular membership on xbox live? I have gold right now (don't know when it expires) and I want to see what I would be missing out on if I didn't have it

I use it too. Never knew about it til like last year-ish. I have a few points but I'm hoping that tripleplay last month works out for me. I heard if you rack up enough points you can earn back MSP and what not

if you dont have gold you can't play multi player on any game.

Ouch, I should probably grab another 12 months worth of that. I don't want to have my membership run out the day of a race

You have to have gold to play games online, watch netflix, espn,. ect.

I think right now it's their regular price of $55/yr. 5 bucks off regular price.

I got it just after xmas. Picked it up even though my Gold expired in Feb or March. Check out Major Nelson's blog for upcoming deals. Sometimes, Amazon sells it at $40.
